Thu, 29 Sep 2016 06:43:56 +0000Ronald Sousahttps://www.hashdefineelectronics.com/?post_type=podcast&p=1116In this episode Ronald talks about some of the common issues you could run into when running a contract business.

Show Notes

Keep your running cost low

Do you really need to pay for an office. I only had a small table when I first started out!.

How contract work won’t necessary give you the freedom to work on your own project

Don’t underestimate the time you spend chasing invoices, new client and general paper work

Some people automatically assume that you are well off or rich just because you have your company. Yeah right

Make sure that you really do your math/research when calculating your rates

Don’t forget to make a backup plan and be ready to excuted if things don’t work out. Can you survive without an income stream for three or four month?
